Apologies to Jetta Frost & Petracca who all played their part.  6. Viney set the tone from the middle along with  5. Oliver was just fantastic around the clearances and his workrate was

22 into 6 won't go, but on a more serious note:

6.  Viney

5.  Hibberd

4.  Oliver

3.  Pedersen

2.  Vince

1. Salem

That was a seriously difficult assignment, and probably doesn't do justice to the likes of Truck, TMac, Jetts and Jonsey.  On any other weekend, they would have been in my bests.

Had trouble putting them in order, but think they were the best 6.  Wanted to squeeze in Jones, Vince, Tom Mac and Jetta but couldn't.

6 Oliver (hard for me not to give him this after criticising him lately. Not once did he turn backwards and compile stats with an easy unrequired handball. Brilliant and what a goal)

5 Hibberd (how good was he! Plenty of tricky moments to cope with - the Wags handball over his head etc - but he was beaten only in one of them - Eddie's magic goal).

4 Viney (he's back. I just feel sorry for his girlfriend. Imagine him coming at you all the time!)

3 Petracca (when you are Mr Cool in the cauldron that we witnessed, then you've made it. He has. We now have two young superstars and a host of other goers).

2 T-Mac (I know some of you don't get it with his kicking. But if you actually watch his impact, he's in everybody's votes. I just wish Jesse would take note.)

1 Salem (Started our regroup in the second with a courageous handball to Lewis and was precise and clever from then on. Why he's been playing midfield is beyond me.)

Apologies:

Jones and Pedo - Hard to believe that they could kick five between them, do their roles, and miss votes, but I stand by my choices.

Vince - A serial pest in Adelaide. Sometimes we need to tag and the element of surprise helps. Normal role next week please though.

6) Viney - dominant, fearless, inspirational

5) Hibberd - if he played for any other team would be being talked up as unanimous AA selection

4) Petracca - looked like a Dangerfied clone when he went on to the ball. That contested mark and goal just screamed confidence. Total beast.

3) Clayton Oliver - made Jacobs hitouts look worthless. A genius reader of the play.

2) TMac  - his move forward helped turn the game.   Goodwin is a proactive coach.

1) Bernie Vince - obliterated Sloane

Unlucky - Salem, Jetta, Pedersen, Jones, Frost

Hibberd has been fantastic, but he has played three games, so wouldn't be in AA contention at the moment. The fact that he plays for the MFC rather than someone else has nothing to do with it. 

Other than that, pretty accurate I reckon.

Sorry Billy. Couple of useful things in the third doesn't cut it for me compared to the six chosen.Two goals, two excellent contested marks and two goal assists were good though.

6 - Viney. Complete game. Drove us forward always (and through them).

5 - Vince. His role was so important, Sloane drives them, Vince took the keys. 

4 - Petracca. Forward and mid he was great. Too strong, too good. 

3 - Hibberd. Mops [censored] up, gets us out of pickles, strong and smart, ripping game. 

2 - Oliver.  Because Oliver. 

1 - I really can't decide between Tmac and Pedo. Both structurally important. Both played equally well. .5 each. 

That was difficult. lol look at the players that missed out.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp. DEMONLAND'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS It’s going to be a scorcher today but I’m in the shade at Gosch’s Paddock ready to bring you some observations from the final session before the Preseason Training Camp next week.  Salem, Fritsch & Campbell are already on the track. Still no number on Campbell’s

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
